    Uhm her eyes are level with the top of the dash, and by that I mean the dash is likely obscuring her vision. Not safe!!!

    Might be because it's all black interior. Creates the feeling of the sides of the truck moving in, slowly, slowly, progressively becoming more entombed.

    I KNEW IT!

    Well the odd thing was, it wasn't the look but the leg room. I sat in front passenger and my buddy was in back. I moved my seat up (until my knees were at the dash) and he said he had no room. On our return trip, we switched seats. Sure enough, my knees were in the back of the front seat. A week earlier, we had gone to an Angels game with our lady friends in my truck (2015). He sat in the back with no issues, my girl didn't even have to move her seat up. He and I both mentioned there was less room in the 2016, but we can't quite figure why. Maybe the dashboard just comes out further or something...

    Then again, were both 6'3"...a couple people of a smaller stature would probably fit just fine.

    You are so correct. Maybe Toyota needs this sort of feedback to take these problems seriously I suspect the product will get better

    As long as these trucks are selling like hot cakes then owner complaints are not taken seriously.

    Case in point I went to a Toyota dealership two weeks ago and they had 12 2016 tacomas on the lot different configurations. I stop by yesterday and all I saw was one 2016 Tacoma. At this rate it is no wonder Toyota is not feeling the pressure to address identified problems with the 2016 Tacoma

    Basically as consumers we need to send Toyota a message plain and simple. Stop buying them That in it self will change Toyota corporate attitude and they will address QC issues

    My 16 has no odd noises or vibrations, or driveability problems. I find it to be a smooth riding truck that handles fairly well

    Yes. However, that wasn't under normal use... and isn't a vibration lol. Just a complete failure of Toyota to back their product ... lol

    I agree that millennials are exposed to more information than any other generation but many of them just don`t seem to have enough common sense to use the information available to them.

    Maybe they're taking in too much information to effectively sort it through.
